• Our mission is to support the election of Democratic candidates for public office who will champion the freedoms guaranteed in the Constitution and work towards legislation based on progressive moral values, in our local community, state, and nation. WHAT WE DO

• Attend our monthly meetings as well as about four or five county meetings during the year.

• Obtain signatures on petitions for our candidates, as well as ourselves, every March.

• Raise public awareness of the Democrats by sponsoring an informational film series, marching in the 4th of July Parade, and cleaning a section of Highway 12B twice a year.

• Send out a limited number of fundraising letters every year.

• Work for Democratic candidate victories by helping with some of these activities:
• Recruiting and screening candidates
• Presenting the candidates to the community at the September Gathering on the Green
• Stuffing campaign materials in door hanger bags at a party in October
• Organizing a literature drop in the villages of Clinton and Clark Mills and mailing our own brochure to non-walkable areas two weeks before Election Day.

"Waiting for Republicans to stop making baseless accusations or for legacy media to stop parroting those claims is a fool’s errand. Politics in an era of a Republican Party unbound by truth or decency necessitates confronting daily the propaganda and hysteria generated by a MAGA cult for whom demonization, dehumanization, and distortion are second nature.... Democratic candidates up and down the ticket would do well to follow the examples of success over the last two years: go on offense against Republican corruption and reverse Robin Hood economics, denounce billionaire elites who rig the system in their favor, and definitely join Trump’s call in asking voters to “pretend” he is on the ballot. In fact, for all practical purposes, Trump is on the ballot; and only a rout of his Republican enablers will the disastrous policies and corruption free-for-all come to an end."

Yes, the cavalry is us. Right now you can participate by canvassing for local candidates, supporting them financially (even a little bit helps!), joining in Get Out The Vote efforts, or becoming an election worker (see https://oneidacountynyvotes.gov/become-an-election-worker/).

The greatest power we have is our own.
